Located on a quiet street less than a five-minute walk from many major sights, the three-star Hotel Corvin provides standard accommodations with a few pleasant surprises.

The atmosphere at the Corvin is standard budget hotel. Forty-two identical rooms sport neutral bedspreads and bland, teal-colored furnishings. Beige walls are brightened a bit with cheery art and yellow curtains. All rooms have air conditioning, television, telephone and minibars.

The building's façade looks more like a brick Gaudi structure than a place to bed down. A fun wrought iron awning frames the front doors and once inside, the a colorful lobby gives way to reception. A breakfast room is just off the terrace and a modest bar is located behind the reception area.

We suggest that guests hit the back patio for the real action though. Since the Hotel Corvin shares a pretty back courtyard with the Hotel Sissi next door, a simple BBQ pit is usually in full swing on nice days. It's surrounded by greenery, which helps hide a rear parking area.

About the Corvin Hotel neighborhood

Formerly Budapest's seedy Red Light District, Józsefváros has reinvented itself in recent years. It's now a fun, eccentric 'hood, home to world music stores, gothic clothing shops, boho cafés and pubs, and the grand neo-classical Hungarian National Museum. Nearby Ferencváros sports its very own savvy student scene.
